Scientific paper

The lambda Ori star forming region (5 Myr, 400 pc) is surrounded by a 5 x 5 deg wide molecular ring probably formed by a supernova explosion. Our previous multi-wavelength studies focused on the most well-known areas within the cloud complex. For a complete picture of star formation, believed to be determined by the supernova blast, the large-scale distribution of the pre-main sequence population in lambda Ori needs to be examined. We suspect a further pre-main sequence cluster to be associated with a concentration of B-type stars near the NE of the molecular ring. A search for X-ray emission is the most efficient way of identifying the low-mass cluster. The properties of its members will then be compared to the other lambda Ori subgroups.
